> How do you leap to "these liars"?

To assert that it is possible using engineering to have predictable control over a system that we only have the barest understanding of (Earth's geophysical systems) is a straight up lie.

That is where.

Greed. Hubris. Burn the world.



By that logic, there is no point in doing anything at all. Who knows whether we can avoid burning by stopping CO2 emissions? It's all too complex!

You can't separate the scientists whose models told you to reduce CO2 and the scientists who propose reducing solar irradiance with bubble shades. They're all using the same equations to predict what will happen.
